1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Description
This versatile ultra high-performance meter handles a broad spectrum of dc voltage and current ranges, nine
thermocouple types, multiple RTD's, and signals from strain gauge transducers such as load cells and pressure
transducers, as well as potentiometric inputs. It also features ten point linearization of input signals, programmable by the
user for custom applications.
Built-in excitation to power virtually any sensor or transmitter, and four isolated open collector outputs for control or alarms
are standard. The big, bright, 6-digit patented LED display can be programmed to change color between Red, Amber, and
Green at any setpoint. Output options include: Isolated programmable analog voltage or current and four relays.
With the Serial Communications option, the user can select from a push-button menu between RS-232, RS-485, and
either a straightforward ASCII protocol or MODBUS. With our award-winning Ethernet/Internet option, this unit connects
directly to an Ethernet network and transmits data in standard TCP/IP protocol. It is possible to monitor and control a
process through a web browser from anywhere on the Internet.
